Hello everyone! My name is Hayley and I usually blog over at Water Painted Dreams but today Kirsty's letting me guest post over here so I can show you a summery FOTD. Thanks Kirsty!
I started off by priming my eyes with the Urban Decay Primer Potion so that my eyeshadow will stay in place in the summer heat. Then I took Sin from the Urban Decay Naked Palette and applied that all over the lid with a flat shader brush. Using a fluffy crease brush, I worked Naked into the crease and then Buck into the outer corner. To top everything off I added a little inner corner highlight using Virgin. I wanted to keep it my eyes fairly neutral as I'm going for a pretty bold lip. But no look is finished for me without some liquid eyeliner so I added a little flick using the MUA Liquid Eyeliner in Shade 5. To finish off the eyes I popped on some of the No7 Extreme Length Mascara. Then I just lightly filled in my brows with the Matte Brown from the Sleek Storm Palette.
I, for one, hate the feeling of foundation. Especially when it's hot. So I'm only using powder on my face today. I just applied some of the Seventeen Miracle Matte Powder with a brush to take away any shine. I then applied some of the Dainty Doll Blusher in Money Talks to my cheeks. This is my favorite way to add a bit of summer glow to my pale face. Then to top it all off I applied a bit of lip balm and then the Revlon Lip Butter in Raspberry Pie. This is a lovely bright pink which just screams 'summer' to me.
That's all from me today! Thanks again to Kirsty for allowing me to guest post. If you'd like to see more from me then please click here to get taken to my blog!
